A Brilliant Proposal: Vince & Sooah

August 23, 2011

Vince came to me at the very last moment. He wanted an amazing proposal for his fashion-loving, NYC girl but didn’t know how to pull it off.  With the city and fashion as my inspiration, I found the super-exclusive penthouse the Mondrian SoHo for their backdrop. With floor-to-ceiling windows and a wrap-around patio, it was the chic and sophisticated city location Vince had been looking for.

For personalized elements, I designed a shim with the iconic I Heart NY t-shirts in Sooah’s favorite color, pink and added a contrasting white t-shirt customized to say I Heart Sooah. Three ice sculptures of the most recognizeable structures in New York City on a spread of the day’s New York Times newspapers and shades of pink ribbon created a subway map art piece using their pictures as stops along the way. A personalized classic yellow taxi cab and an MTA Train Status key were created just for Vince & Sooah’s big moment.

When Vince got down on one knee, Sooah said “Yes!” Next stop on their train?  A wedding! Click here to watch their video.

A Brilliant Proposal: Rodrigo & Gabriela

August 17, 2011

When Rodrigo contacted me from Brazil, he wanted a simple, rooftop marriage proposal with a view of the most iconic building in NYC: the Empire State Building. Not an easy task to find on short notice! His romantic and elegant proposal to Gabriela was a huge hit and she said YES (make that “Sim!” in Portuguese).  Thanks to Chef Ashton Keefe for their delectable dinner, Juan Villanueva for flowers and Sofia Negron for the fantastic photos!
